About

Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6469 yards
Slope 129
Rating 71.1

Jekyll Island Golf Club is Georgia's largest public golf facility, offering three 18-hole courses and a nine-hole course. Two of the 18-hole courses, Pine Lakes and Indian Mound, have similar characteristics since they sit side by side. Both are younger than the Oleander, which is considered the toughest of the three and served as host to the Georgia Open for four years. The Indian Mound Course is the shortest of the three at just under 6,500 yards from the back tees but that is not to say you won't run into a fair amount of challenges. The layout features lengthy par 5s that you wouldn't expect given the yardage, and the par 4s offer scoring opportunities for those who take advantage of the short shots into the green. The Indian Mound Course's main challenges are the undulating greens and abundance of sand.

Anniversary Round

We played here ten years ago where I proposed on the 18th Green. It was just as beautiful today as it was 10 years ago. Saw deer on multiple holes, herring and Red headed woodpeckers. Secluded and still green everywhere in late November. Hopefully it will be less than ten years before we return!

Tranquil

As a beginner, I find this course has less distractions than than other courses I have played. You almost never see houses or cars. But you do see wildlife and nature. We saw deer on almost every hole. This is quickly becoming my favorite course.

Pretty course

All was good except for the foursome 2 groups in front that was very slow until the last few holes when it started to get dark. -No ranger. Also the greens were not fast.

A lot of interruptions with pace of play on the golf cart screen.

We complied with letting faster players pass thru. The Golf Cart would randomly stop even while on the Cart Path. Called into having the GPS system shutdown and the staff person was not very friendly, we were told that it could not be shutdown. When mentioned in discussion with her associate, she was told how to turn off GPS which made the game play easier.

Maybe will try it again, we will have to see.

Disappointed

Greens have serious weeds growing which as you know late in day can cause your ball to change directions. We had cart path only on numerous holes. I never saw a reason for this except a couple of serious mud spots. It had not rained in days. Flagging or stakes could have kept carts away.

Doesn’t look like the course is being kept in same shape I played previously. Bunkers looked like no one was taking daily.

Love Playing Jekyll

The Jekyll Courses are fun and well kept up. The one downside is that there is not enough on course water and it gets easily into the triple digits with heat index June, July and August. Edwin Watts! Sponsor large coolers of ice-water on at least every other hole.

3 Handicap Family Vacation Review

Course layout was really awesome. Haven’t played here in about 5 years. Short course - so birdies are out there. Some holes can be pretty tight for driver.

There is a lot of Risk/Reward off the tee.

Definitely a very fun course if solo or with a group. Great “gambling” course because there are so many short and narrow holes. Most of the course’s length is in the Par 5’s.

Only complaint was the greens were rolling about a 5-6 in June. If the greens were to be rolling fast - place would be immaculate for tournament play.

Will definitely come back to play here - especially with a group. Fun track!

Really inconsistent

Everything about the facility is inconsistent. The courses need some work. The range is in terrible shape. It's what you would expect from a state park golf course.
